good grief well i'm still curious to watch it.

stormy001_M1A2 · 2010-09-19, 12:38

I swear GAINAX must be smoking shitloads of pot and drink copious amount of sake to animate this one.

Izayoi · 2010-09-19, 13:06

I wouldn't mind watching this series just to give it a try.

If that's your explanation for this one, may I ask what you think it takes for SHAFT to do some of theirs?

More on-topic, while I've seen "PPG as an ecchi" mentioned several times here, is that really the point? IOW is this a Gainax homage to Genndy Tartakovsky (with whom the PPG creator got his start), or is there more to this than that?

SHAFT is always high, so there's not much to say. ◔ ◡ ◔

This is obviously an homage to the work of both McCracken and Tartakovsky - Dexter's Lab, Samurai Jack, Power Puff Girls. To deny it would be simply plagiarism.

***CrowKenobi*** · 2010-09-19, 21:54

So they're paying an homage to someone who'd paid an homage to them? (at least the industry)

Courtesy of TMSIDR:

At the German convention Connichi, Gainax co-founder Hiroyuki Yamada says:

"...it was intended that it goes in the direction of an Ecchi Power Puff Girls. In the currect state of the anime it probably can’t be broadcasted without beeps and black bars(/mosaics) on Japanese TV [while laughing^^]."

D-KLAC · 2010-09-19, 23:40

come after watching the REAL MAN anime in gurren lagann & anime version rugrats aka hanamaru kindergarten come on GAINAX is really make it worth my watch.

& with this latest oh he!! yea this is like the really make more worth to watch.

Milfeulle9001 · 2010-09-20, 16:49

It's a good thing Gainax found a station that'd let them do as they pleased, which therefore makes for no censorship.

If this show were to be censored, I'd go nuts with the constant bleeps and censor mosaics.

EfrainMan · 2010-09-22, 11:20

Gainax will probably make it all subtle enough to not ostensibly NEED censorship, but still make it raunchy. That's usually way funnier than actual content that needs to be censored.

Gainax, so much hated, so much loved...

If it's anything like the manga, Gainax isn't pulling any punches. Also, they secured a network that will allow them to do whatever they want. What worries me is how this is gonna go over with Crunchyroll. Will they censor this, like Juuden Chan and MPD Psycho?

God forbid it.

GAINAX made some weird choices in what shows it animates after Gurren Lagann:

Shikabane Hime (2008-9), distancing itself from the mindf*ck, which was their trademark for years
Hanamaru Youichen (2010), which was like nothing they have done before
and now this, which looks more like an american scatological comedy, but who knows

The only thing kept constant was gainaxing and probably even this troupe will be dropped by this show

It's difficult to tell with the art style and (especially) the quick cuts, but look at Stocking fairly late in the PV, where she's wearing the gym clothes and doing some sort of kata/attack. I think she's been elected to the Designated Gainaxer position. Not to mention every female ghost is probably going to be at least an F-cup.

What's wrong with Gainax branching into different genres? It shows that the studio is growing, and personally that's a great thing. Though of course, i've got nothing against them just producing epic mecha shows.

Also saying that their trademark is mide rape is just silly, though i don't expect anything less when it comes to people talking about Gainax. Shikabane Hime wasn't their first show that didn't involve it, and it was a fantastic series. All two seasons of it.

Oh, and you completely forgot about Rebuild of Evangelion.

Don't get me wrong, I also liked Shikabane Hime, despite its flaws. Branching to other gernes and/or troupes is not by itself a bad thing ... it's just that when you liked what they are already doing, change is not so welcome.

I did not mention it because there are other studios involved, like their maid shows.
